Bladder Cancer and Upper Tract Urothelial Carcinoma – Landscape & Forecast – Disease Landscape & Forecast (G7)
The treatment landscape for bladder cancer and upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) continues to evolve with the expanding role of immune checkpoint inhibitors and novel targeted therapies. The anti-PD-1 therapies Keytruda (Merck & Co.) and Opdivo (Bristol Myers Squibb) remain integral across multiple treatment lines, with Keytruda combined with the antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) Padcev (Pfizer / Astellas) poised as the first-line standard for cisplatin-ineligible patients. Bavencio (Merck KGaA / Pfizer) remains the only agent used in first-line maintenance therapy. Adstiladrin (Ferring Pharmaceuticals), the first gene therapy for high-risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer, represents a key innovation, providing another treatment option. Balversa (Johnson & Johnson), the first FGFR inhibitor, offers targeted treatment for patients with FGFR3 alterations after a prior systemic therapy. This marks a shift toward biomarker-driven therapy. Emerging therapies, including novel targeted agents, will continue to diversify treatment options, intensifying market competition.
